Board Game Arena

I don't know the relevant decision process, but I strongly hope that the next Arena season for QGEF (and QGSF, if it will be available also in Arena) will NOT have the "First game" cards option active.
I would be curious to know who decided to set this option active and for which reasons, in the current Arena season (in which I played only one game, as I don't like this setting among experienced players)

I completely agree. This is a very bad setting, and makes the half the first year a repetitive ordeal…

I agree. It is a bad setting.

Arena settings are choosen by guru players.
I will ask BGA support team to change settings for QGEF next season and for QGSF first season after release.
After that, if a guru change this settings for the next season, I will not intervene again.

Who are the guru players, and how can we reach them to possibly discuss about Arena games settings?

For future Arena seasons, please consider also

(If it will be implemented in BGA)

First Game setting has been removed for both QGEF/QGSF.
But if Guru players set it to enabled again, BGA team will not change it again.
